Fabric API is the core library for the most common hooks and intercompatibility measures utilized by mods using the Fabric toolchain
More infomation and full installation instructions can be found on the Fabric website and support can be found on the Fabric discord server.
This is SEPARATE from the Fabric loader! You need both for most mods!
Keep in mind the project requires the Fabric mod loader!

I'd recommend this modpack as it makes things easier. https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/patchworkmc-testpack Otherwise it says a replacement is being worked on (older versions of the Patchwork API and Patcher still exist just the latest versions of those files don't so just use one version back or so) but I don't know much about that. The links and downloads for the Patcher are still there so it may still be possible.
The original (and that modpack) was only possible with 1.14.4 (specific mods) but I don't know how far 1.16.4 support got before they changed their mind on this for a replacement. Patchwork was intended for Mod Devs and not general users but it may be possible if you can get things worked even as a general user.

One problem LAWL I use 1.15.2
In reply to ejreeper:
Yeah nothing for that unfortunately, even with the change in direction Patchwork is having I assume that would be for 1.16+ versions.
In reply to SuntannedDuck2:
do i have to build the api myself
In reply to humematt19:
I'm pretty sure even with the easier approach with the modpack you still need to yes. I never got far with it so I don't know for sure. Try asking the Patchwork team on Discord and they can hopefully guide you. That or there is a few Patchwork videos out there
is the last update still incompatible with canvas
[1.16.5] Fabric API 0.34.0 has cardinal components
which makes it impossible to break blocks
please update to one of the new 1.17 snapshots above 20w45a
In reply to stewartde:
they have been updating it look here https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/fabric-api/files/all?filter-game-version=1738749986:73242
In reply to stewartde:
1.17 files just doesn't appear above 1.16 for some reason on Curseforge. If you have used/seen 1.17 mods then its the same here on the Fabric API page. Always look at 'Files' tab for any new 1.17 snapshot files or 'View All' and select 1.17 from the dropdown menu and you will see all of them.
will this be ported to cloth config api
In reply to epiphenomenalism:
Cloth Config API needs Fabric API so no they won't be ported the other way around. There is Cloth Config API for Forge and Fabric though
In reply to SuntannedDuck2:
then port cloth config api to fabric api and forge api to cloth config api because i wanted to dowload some mods but every single mods is for a different stupid api why dont you port all apis to fabric if you dont wnat to port fabric to forge or cloth config
In reply to epiphenomenalism:
I updated my comment. Cloth Config API is for Forge and Fabric (the Dev for it has mods for either modloader). That's what I meant to say before but forgot to for some reason.
Otherwise Fabric API is the important code for Fabric and doesn't have any purpose on Forge, similar to Minecraft Coder Pack on Forge (at least for 1.12.2 and before versions 1.13+ Forge changed many things).
As long as you have Fabric API and whatever mods you need in Fabric your good to go. If all you need is the Forge mods and those mods that needed Cloth Config API for Forge then you should be good to go.
forge port when
In reply to GuestExploitz:
Never, Fabric API is the Minecraft Coder Pack (see Mod Options menu in 1.12.2) of Fabric, meaning they are important Fabric files, Forge has no benefit gained from them. Otherwise Fabric and Forge are too different making them impossible to port.
Updated my server with the new fabric api however now when starting the server up I cant get it to go past preparing the spawn. Not sure why it does this not to mention I get stuck at 99% for my single player worlds when trying to get back on them. (send help)
In reply to TankGoPew:
You might want to ask that question in the Fabric Discord (whether using Aternos, just general Fabric servers, what mods and more are useful information to point out), hopefully someone there can help you. Not too familiar with server environments. https://discord.com/invite/v6v4pMv
Heyo! So when I tried to download this it said that it can "harm my computer" I don't know if I should keep it or get rid of it?
In reply to Gh0styGoblyn:
All that really means is that it is a "runnable" file, as opposed to like a photo or a sound file. The intent is to prevent scammers from trying to pass off a malicious program as something else. You should be fine as long as you know who the source of the file is. Both CurseForge and the Fabric team are pretty well known and trustworthy, so in this case you should be fine.
